Traffic chaos
After waking up, we looked out our hotel window to view the traffic chaos which we soon would be pedaling… through…
audio visuals
Hypnotic
Staring at the ceiling while music from the neighbouring karaoke bar slowly ‘serenaded’ us to sleep. And we weren’t the… only… ones
Candle festival
We arrived at midday to see the Burmese placing candles around the Botahtaung pagoda. Paul said, “Let’s stick around and… see what happens.” So glad we did! It was a privilege to witness the Festival of Lights. It celebrates Buddha’s descent from heaven.
Sky lantern festival
“Come, come,” said the Buddhist monks as they waved us over to help them send sky lanterns into the heavens
Chao Phraya river
A time lapse film of the Chao Phraya express boat landing, while the sun sets over Wat Arun in Bangkok… Thailand
Pha That Luang
The Great Stupa in Vientiane is the most sacred monument in the country. It’s also believed to enshrine a sacred… relic of the Buddha.
Neon
After way too much climbing that day – we lay comatose on our hotel bed. Through the window, we stared… at the neon sign on the other side of the street.
